Andy Murray during a match in Glasgow last November

ANDY MURRAY will make a decision on his Australian Open prospects at the weekend as he tries to avoid surgery to treat his long-term hip problem.

Murray pulled out of the Brisbane International today as the injury that has sidelined him since Wimbledon was still causing him pain.

The 30-year-old revealed his frustrations with the problem that has put a hold on his career and admitted he may have to go under the knife, while his participation in the first grand slam of the year is in serious doubt.
